The City of Katy remained in a Level 3 drought, and city officials pleaded with residents to conserve water, per a Facebook post on August 25.
Katy Times (Texas), Sept 11, 2023
Heat and excessive water use triggered Katy’s Stage 3 water restrictions. The mandatory restrictions took effect because daily water use equaled or exceeded 85% of the city’s total water pumping capacity for three consecutive days. Water may not be used to wash vehicles, pavement or to fill pools.
